December hearing list

The December hearing list has been released. Once again, there are lots of repeat players arguing in the two-week sitting that starts (counterintuitively) on November 30, including (but not limited to) Brian Wolfman, Jon Hacker, Peter Stris, Seth Waxman, Neal Katyal, Paul Clement, Bartow Farr, Will Consovoy, Bert Rein, Paul Smith, and Greg Garre. Also some guy named Tom Goldstein. Phew, that’s quite a list — and it doesn’t even include the lawyers from the Solicitor General’s office.
